0175 Torrent

Qingqiuli and Zhou Shaobai were swept by the torrent. Although they had a profound cultivation level, they were no different from the two straws in such a huge turbulent momentum.

The two of them followed the flow and were swallowed and buried by huge waves from time to time. However, they always raised their heads ruthlessly and prevented themselves from being completely trapped in the water.

In the thick black as thick as ink, Qingqiuli's eyes were as bright as copper bells, shining. She stared at the rocks staggered across the shore and sharp as beast teeth.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she saw a rock in front that was thrust far away from the river. She suddenly became excited. It was this place!

At the moment of converging with the rock, Qingqiuli screamed and suddenly jumped out of the water. He grabbed the edges and corners of the rock, used his hands and feet to hold them tightly!

The ropes on her waist suddenly tense up, and the turbulent flow rolled Zhou Shaobai forward. A huge force came, almost tearing her off the rock!

Qingqiuli gritted his teeth and buried his hands deeply into the rock. Then he shouted loudly: "Young Master Zhou! Come up!"

Zhou Shaobai had already grabbed the wet rope, tightened his body, and plucked up all his strength, moving towards the rock inch by inch against the huge waves.

The long holding back his breath had already caused him unbearable headaches, his whole body was limp, and his hands and feet were numb. Compared with usual days, Zhou Shaobai was simply a sick cat at this time.

The cold and squeaky river water made him tremble with cold, making it even more difficult for him to go upstream. However, Zhou Shaobai was still getting closer and closer to the rock. He gritted his steel teeth and tried his best to get to the rock. Just as his fingers touched the slippery stone wall, the rope suddenly broke.

Zhou Shaobai immediately felt that his body was pushed back by a huge force. He didn't even have time to shout, so he could only grab it in vain!

However, he was so stupid that he really grabbed something randomly!

"Come up!" Qingqiuli used all his strength to finally pull Zhou Shaobai onto the rock. The rock was relatively flat, and the two of them collapsed on it like mud, and they kept gasping for breath, feeling like they were reborn from hell.

Although the ground was very stuffy and dirty, Zhou Shaobai still opened his mouth greedily and swallowed it with no mind.

His mind gradually returned to clearness, and then he realized that he was still holding the object in his hand - Qingqiuli's tail.

Zhou Shaobai quickly let go of his hand and said hurriedly: "I'm so sorry, did you hurt you?"

Qingqiuli's face was not seen in the dark, and she only heard her say, "Young Master Zhou, don't blame yourself, I'm fine. It was so dangerous just now. Fortunately, with God's blessing, we can arrive safely."

After hearing Qingqiu Li say this, Zhou Shaobai feels very much in his heart. Thinking about his experience just now, it is really like purgatory.

Suddenly, he was stunned and thought to himself: I remember when I was at the bottom of the river, I was already holding my breath to the limit and was almost dead. How did I get over it at that time?

In an instant, the lips became hot, and it seemed to awaken a forgotten memory.

Zhou Shaobai was shocked and couldn't help but touch his lips and asked, "Qingqiu Xiao... Ali, I remember in a trance that I almost drowned at the bottom of the river before, how did you bring me here?"

There was only the sound of turbulent waves in the dark, and it seemed that Zhou Shaobai was the only one here.

I don’t know how long it took before Ali’s voice sounded. He hesitated and wanted to speak, “At that time, I saw that you could no longer hold on, and I was very panicked, afraid that you would be gone. So, I came to help you…”

Zhou Shaobai felt nervous when he heard this, and he only pricked up his ears, wanting to hear the memories in his heart just now, whether it was just his imagination.

Unexpectedly, Qingqiuli suddenly rushed over, covered his mouth, and said in a slight voice: "Silence!"

Zhou Shaobai understood it, and the two of them became silent. The sound of surging water drowned everything, and they could hear footsteps passing by next to the dark river.

The warmth of Qingqiuli's tender palm came from his lips. In a trance, it was extremely similar to the touch on his lips when he was at the bottom of the river. Zhou Shaobai felt aroused and couldn't help but think: Could it be, that's true?

After the footsteps gradually disappeared, Qingqiuli's palm left Zhou Shaobai's lips and said in confusion: "It's really strange. Why are there anyone patrolling here? It's really unusual."

Zhou Shaobai felt strange when he heard this and asked, "This is the demon's underground palace. Isn't it reasonable to have guards patrol?"

Qingqiuli said worriedly: "It's very wrong. I didn't see anyone passing by here a few times. In short, we must be extremely careful this time and we must not make any mistakes."

Zhou Shaobai nodded and said, "That's natural."

There was a surging stream under the rock, which was not a place to stay for a long time. The two of them recovered their energy and immediately stood up and came to the shore with ease.

It was not the first time Qingqiuli came here, but it was surprising that someone passed by on the shore just now, so she was very careful at this time, and she stuck out her ears and turned them back and forth in all directions. After listening carefully for a long time, she felt relieved and said, "I didn't hear anything, and I finally feel at ease."

Zhou Shaobai remembered what she hadn't finished just now and was hesitating whether to ask, but Qingqiu Li suddenly said, "Mr. Zhou, I feel very guilty. Actually, I lied to you!"

Zhou Shaobai was stunned. The monk Zhang Er was confused and asked, "You lied to me? What are you saying this?"

Qingqiuli hesitated and said, "Actually... it is not a stick of incense to get here from the bottom entrance of the hot spring."

"What?" Zhou Shaobai was surprised. "It's not a stick of incense? How long does it take?"

"One... an hour..." Qingqiuli said hesitantly.

Zhou Shaobai almost fainted.

He had never tried to hold his breath for so long. His first attempt was at the bottom of the water. Once he failed, he would be doomed and could not turn back.

This little fairy! He dares to lie to me like this!

Qingqiuli noticed his anger and whispered timidly: "Young Master Zhou, are you angry? I, I'll apologize to you, okay..."

Zhou Shaobai sighed and had already swam over, not to mention that he was rescued twice by Qingqiuli. How could he get angry?

He shook his head and said, "I wasn't angry, I was just surprised. Why can I hold my breath for so long? I remember that my master said that at least I can hold my breath for about an hour after reaching the realm of Kaitian."

Qingqiuli thought of it and said, "Although what your master said makes sense, people are not the same. Perhaps you have such potential. When you are at the bottom of the water, you can't stop and have a dead end. In this case, your potential will be stimulated and you will be safely ashore."

Zhou Shaobai felt it made sense, so he nodded and said, "Ali, don't forget that we have nothing to do, don't delay any more."

Qingqiuli laughed and said, "I won't forget this, follow me!"
